Auto-reply and forwarding

Out of office replies and sending mail on to another address.

Open Settings, Filters & auto-reply.
Switch on Auto-reply.
Optionally set a First day and Last day, then write a subject and message.

Each sender gets at most one automatic reply a day, so nobody is flooded.

In the same page, switch on Forward all mail.
Enter the address under Forward to.
Leave Keep a copy in this mailbox on unless you really want mail to leave for good.

For your safety we email you whenever forwarding is switched on. If you did not do it, change your password straight away.
